Saving Your Marriage - Learn To Overcome Those Obstacles

By Frank Stevens


Your marriage is not perfect, but that is only because no one has a perfect marriage. This is one of the things you need to come to realize. Just because someone appears to have that perfect married life you have always wanted does not mean they are really perfect. Sure, actions speak for themselves, but you never see them behind their own walls. There are more than likely a lot of disagreements that go unheard to the visible ear. Saving your marriage is not that hard to do. Sure, it is going to take some time and it cannot be done in a day, but don't you think it is well worth it?

First of all, you need to realize that no one is "the boss" in a relationship. Sure, people joke about who wears the pants in the marriage, but that should be the both of you. Everything you do should be done together. This does not mean following one another around and being under each other ever second of the waking day.

Next, you need to come to the realization that there is not a perfect relationship out there. Sure, that married couple that lives down the block from you may look happy all the time and appear to be perfect, but you do not know what goes on behind those walls.

When you sit down with one another and communicate, you will find that problems are easy. However, when you sit down with one another and yell at each other, neither one of you will get anywhere, so why do it?

When you are in a marriage, if you make a mistake, then just fix it. You should never run away from your problems as this is not going to get you anywhere. If the president of the United States and everyone in the white house just threw up their hands and ran away from their problems, where would that leave the citizens of the United States? The same goes for you, if you just threw up your hands and left your family, where would your family be?

You need to learn to respect one another for who you are. Yes, he or she has hobbies you do not exactly understand, but that is what makes them their person. Sure, they play video games and it's not fun to you, but we are sure you do other things that are not fun to them. Learn about the other's hobbies. Perhaps, you are not interested in the hobby, because you do not understand it. You see, saving your marriage may not be that piece of cake you had been hoping for, but it is very well possible.
